Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Breast “sagging” leads many women to feel incredibly self-conscious about their bodies.

Not surprisingly, this can begin to take its toll on day-to-day life and relationships. There are many reasons why breasts begin to lose their shape and firmness; breastfeeding, weight loss and the natural ageing process are a few common contributing factors women will face. A Breast Lift can restore volume and fullness to your breasts, opening the door for a happier and more confident you.

What It Involves

A Breast Lift or Mastopexy will lift your breasts, reposition your nipple, and improve their shape by restoring volume and fullness. The procedure involves removing excess skin, reshaping the breast tissue and repositioning the nipple to the middle of the breast. The reshaped breast will be lifted to sit higher and bring back youthfulness to your chest. A Breast Lift can also be combined with a Breast Augmentation to restore both shape and increase breast size.

What to Expect

In your initial consultation with Dr Andrew Broadhurst, you’ll discuss your medical history, pregnancy plans (if relevant) and undertake an examination of your chest wall and breasts. Together, you will then discuss your treatment plan in detail and how it can help bring shape back to your breasts. Dr Broadhurst will also talk you through the ins and outs of your procedure, and outline what you can expect after your surgery and in the early recovery period.

A second consultation will be scheduled prior to surgery to ensure you have a complete understanding of your procedure and to give you an opportunity to ask any further questions. This consultation is at no cost to you.

Treatment Timeline

A Breast Lift is performed as a day surgery procedure under a general anaesthetic. Depending on the extent of physical activity you undertake, you should fully recover within one to two weeks thanks to Dr Andrew Broadhurst’s rapid recovery technique.
